The stage is set for another chapter in one of Indian football’s greatest rivalries. East Bengal and Mohun Bagan will face off in the IFA Shield Final on October 8, with both Kolkata giants arriving with silverware already secured this season. Mohun Bagan lifted the Calcutta Football League, while East Bengal claimed the Durand Cup — and now the two rivals meet with the IFA Shield at stake.
For one night, bragging rights belong to whoever can conquer the biggest derby.
